The Story of a Broken Man
13. Secuil Jamila's story



Immediately after waking up Jamila immediately got up from her bed. Actually he was lazy, but forced himself to wake up as well. This morning he had to buy supplies for her to sell. The market in the morning is still quiet, traders are preparing to find sustenance.


After she finished her bath, then prepared. Sometimes he still yawns even though he has been on the move since then, but he is getting used to it. At least for two weeks. The city air that had not been felt for a long time while breathing the air he finally felt as well. It didn't feel as fresh as the air in the village, but it wasn't bad either.


He had returned to his hometown for about half a month. Actually, his initial intention was opposed by his parents because he was worried by him who was an unaccompanied woman alive. But little by little finally approved as well, with a note he must take care of himself as best as possible.


Actually the main reason for leaving is that he was sultry said old virgin by some people, there are also those who say no practice, there are even those who say that he is not interested by men . If you say you want to marry he does not mind, but there is no candidate who thinks is good . So yes, until now, he is still living alone.


In the past, he actually almost married a man who is not too familiar but according to him quite also attitude. Unfortunately before all that materialized the relationship had to end because he did not want to part with his girlfriend . Naturally according to Jamila, because they are also in a match. Jamila had no feelings for him yet, so she did not feel sad either.


The man said in front of his parents Jamila very manly even though he himself has a mental still not strong. His words sounded somewhat stammered . Even so, his courage to say honestly looks it needs to be in the thumbs up . For some reason, Jamila became jealous of the woman who became her partner later. In the end, everything went peacefully. Neither side is harmed by all this. A year later he climbed on the lap with his lover. Jamila did not come at that time, but she thought the bride's face was so happy like a king and queen .


After that there were some people who approached him, but none of them seemed suitable. Imbasnya, he had to hear his parents at length speak telling him to get married. Jamila is like someone who has no interest in getting married. No other man but Joseph looked attractive in his eyes. How many times he wanted to reject her charm, he was even more captivated by her shadow. Sometimes he regretted ever being too brave to lose his mind when he had the opportunity to get close to Joseph. But the rice has become porridge, no matter what happened in the past, it will never be able to change it again .


He went back to his house first. After a long time abandoned, finally the house there are those who inhabit it as well. He had been to the house several times, but only for one or two days - three days at most with a female cousin. But now he was alone because his cousin was also married.


The idea of selling pecelnya came while on the way. After a few days' rest, he rented a stall to sell. The days that began two weeks were ordinary, until Joseph stopped by his stall. It was like getting a marvelous miracle, even though she looked cold to him. But it wasn't about him.

"Well, anyway all the way to town just for pecel trade?" When she found out about Jamila's job, her mother said so. If you think there might be a point too .


"If you want to sell like that here can also," continued his mother did not agree with the work of her daughter.


"What matters is halal. Yes, if the provision of sales here is nothing wrong, right? It's also halal work, '" Jamila tried to explain it to her mother. Actually in his heart he was very irritated to say so.


Instead of selling self-esteem it is better to sell pecel, after all, his homemade pecel is very selling . would like to say rude mouth, but it will make the conversation more complicated. He just kept the conversation there.


Arif promises to come today, rather than thinking about his mother's words, he would rather wait for her and find a way to talk to Joseph. At least apologize. The long-standing event still lingers in his memory . Before apologizing, it was just a burden.


Clothes are not as tight as yesterday. Actually yesterday for the first time he was dressed tight. Not because he wanted to, but because he ran out of clothes and lazy to wash that overflowing like love. So yes, he had to wear clothes like that. Didn't expect Yusuf to stop by his stall. He had no idea what a creature like him was thinking when he saw him dressed like that.

"Hi, which is usually yes," while entering the stall, Arif said so .


" Said he's going to the workshop this afternoon. He said he wanted to see the condition of the motor he put yesterday in the workshop. But I don't know which motor. All I know is that the bike is just the one he uses for work."


"Oh that's it."


"That's not to be discussed. Strange people like that are wanted."


"It's normal drinking, right?" after putting a serving of pecel on the table, Jamila asked.


"Clear dong. Your coffee tastes really bad," after saying so Arif immediately scoops the food.


"It's normal, anyway," while preparing the hot water he's low.


"She said she'd call me? Not so? I'm waiting for you" continued Jamila.


"Forget. It's so tired. I went home straight to sleep. Awakened because of hunger. But yeah, it's sleeping again. Sorry yes."


"Liet down. I'm not angry anyway," while stirring the coffee to mix well, Jamila said so.


"Why aren't you married?"


"Hmm...., no one wants to invite me to marry, yet" Jamila was confused when asked about marriage. This is one of the few questions he can avoid.


"Then anyway? I want to get married. You don't want to marry me?" a speech from the mouth of a crocodile looking for prey does sound so sweet.


"You are . But I want to know you more. We just know. Later he was afraid to say a cute girl," Jamila was confused what to say. Indeed, the man is quite handsome also when viewed. But he still doesn't feel the same way about her. This time the situation is different. He was almost married because he was betrothed, this time it was different. But to refuse directly is impossible, so yes he said that.


"If that's what you want . I'd like to wait for you until you're sure, "an answer that contains the seriousness in it of a grown man who's interested in her.


"If it takes a long time, do you still want to wait?" Jamila mengetes .


"I want to wait until you know that I love you sincerely."
